Interventions

  • Othersurgery for breast cancer and imaging test evaluations

    At the time of surgery, having completed the evaluation extemporaneous of the surgical piece, tissue samples will be collected to be stored from the material exceeding the completion of the patients' diagnosis. In addition, paramenters that can be extracted from radiodiagnostic images will be evaluated

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Multiparametric flow cytometry analyses of Custer of Differentiation (CD) proteins expression on tumor infiltrating lymphocytes

    The following phase of the study aims to go to evaluate the immunology of breast cancer patients compared with the control. In particular we will perfome an accurate characterization in flow cytometry of the cells present in the peripheral blood and of the immune component infiltrating the tumor (tumor infiltrating lymphocytes). The different components of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes will be assessed using the following antibodies: CD45 , CD8, CD4,CD3, HLA-DR, CD19 , CD 326 (EpCAM) ,CD56 , CD14 and CD16.

    Time frame: 1-24 months

  2. Analysis of gene expression profiles of cancer cells

    The following area of study is focused on the study by molecular biology of samples of cancerous and healthy tissue that will be possible to obtain from the subjects participating in the study. For that phase, the type of instrumentation will be determined according to the amount of nucleic acids extracted from the tissues. In fact, samples that will allow recovery of high amounts of RNA and with a good degree of purity will be able to be used for studies carried out with next generation sequencing such as, for example, Ion Torrent S5. In the case of samples in which the RNA is difficult to extract or of low quality, methods such as real time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in multiplex mode

    Time frame: 1-24 months

  3. Extraction of features from radiological images to be used as biomarkers.

    Radiological images from High-field MRI, multilayer CT, hybrid systems such as PET-CT and PET-MRI will be use to extract quantitative parameters of the lesion and the other structures of interest. An automatic segmentation , or alternatively, a manual segmentation by an experienced radiologist or experienced nuclear physician will be performe.

    Time frame: 1-36 months

  4. Bioinformatics analysis

    The correlations between the cytofluorimetric characterization of TILs and the quantitative parameters extracted from radiological images will be performed using different software such as Graphpad or ER softwares.

    Time frame: 37-48 months

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from May 2019 to primary completion in Jan 2023, 44 months.

Of 1,192 non-industry observational studies under Breast Neoplasms, half reached primary completion within 58 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 25 and three quarters within 138. This study's 44 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 1,381 studies reached it within 55 months; a quarter within 25 and three quarters within 125.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Mar 25, 2024, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
